Some more information.

make 3.79.1
c:/Hoffman/testmake/runit.exe "a.c" "b.c"
CreateProcess(C:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe,C:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe c:\DOCUME~1\hoffman\LOCA
LS~1\Temp\make28162.sh,...)

make 3.81
CreateProcess(C:\cygwin\bin\sh.exe,C:/cygwin/bin/sh.exe -c "c:/Hoffman/testmake/
runit.exe ""a.c"" ""b.c""",...)

Seems like the old make used to create a .sh file to run the commands.
I tried setting BATCH_MODE_ONLY_SHELL to 1, but it did not seem to change 
anything.
